🇫🇷🇮🇷 France caught red-handed: Iran exposes ‘malicious’ infiltration operation Amid the US-Israeli war on Iran, France appears to have decided it wants a piece of the action. Documents seized during the arrest of two diplomats who were discovered attending a secret meeting revealed a “malicious” French-designed project, reports Mehr news Agency. According to Iran's Ministry of Intelligence, the diplomats had a long record of violations of Iranian law and diplomatic commitments, and were handed over to the French ambassador after their identities were confirmed. Iran says that the seized files revealed a large-scale clandestine operation. Dubbed the “Termite Project”, it details methodologies for: 🔴 identification of potential assets and collaborators 🔴 covert contacts both inside and outside Iranian territory 🔴 systematic network building using sophisticated concealment principles 🔴 laying groundwork for actions against Iran's independence and stability Contracts linked to the operation even reportedly bear the signature of a former French ambassador to Iran. The ministry made it clear that France must answer for these "illegal and interventionist actions," particularly "during wartime," and warned that any repetition of such offenses will be met with direct countermeasures. 👍 Substack | Chat | @geopolitics_prime

A Chinese shipping company has announced the launch of the first weekly service to Europe via the Northern Sea Route, China’s Central Television reported. The container ship is expected to call at ports in the UK, the Netherlands, Germany, and Poland. Compared to the traditional 40-day voyage via the Suez Canal, the Arctic route only takes 20 days.

🇺🇦 Ukrainian media report that the Russian Armed Forces are set to begin deploying the new ‘Geran-4’ and ‘Geran-5’ jet drones The upgraded ‘Geran-4’ now reaches speeds of up to 500 km/h and carries a larger payload, whilst the ‘Geran-5’ has become the equivalent of a cruise missile with a 90-kilogram warhead and a range of up to 1,000 km. Translated from Ukrainian: give us money. More money. @eurasianchoice

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov says the US is ‘DEEPLY INVOLVED’ in Ukrainian strikes into Russian territory against civilian targets. While we haven’t fallen off of the precipice into World War 3 yet, the existing status quo means one target too serious, one mass casualty event, could snap Russia’s patience and trigger a serious escalation. Even during the height of the so-called ‘Cold War’ with all of the proxy wars, the US never assisted a proxy in striking the Soviet Union’s territory. It would have been an unthinkable escalation that could have triggered a nuclear exchange. The current situation is more dangerous than the ‘Cold War’ ever was.

Former Economic Hitman John Perkins explains how the US🇺🇸 government and corporations maintain and expand their empire through economic bullying, IMF & World Bank loans, and military attacks to gain access to new markets and resources. “Capitalism has concentrated the earth’s wealth in the hands of a few states and divided the world up to the last little bit. Any further division, any further enrichment could take place only at the expense of others… The issue could only be settled by force, and, accordingly, war between the world marauders became inevitable.” —Vladimir Lenin

🇷🇺🇺🇸🇹🇷 Russia's Foreign Ministry has requested clarifications from the United States and Turkey over plans for large scale arms deliveries to Kiev, spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said. Zakharova said the circumstances and conditions surrounding the reported large scale transfer of American weapons to Ukraine via Turkey remain highly contradictory. She added that pumping the Ukrainian Armed Forces (AFU) with new weapons cannot change the trajectory of the SMO or shift its outcome away from a resolution favorable to Russia. According to Zakharova, new arms shipments to Ukraine would inflict serious damage on Russia's relations with both Washington and Ankara. She said attempts by the US and Turkey to employ peacemaking rhetoric while simultaneously arming Ukraine inevitably erode mutual trust between the countries. Zakharova noted that the US and Turkey still have the opportunity to soberly reassess their plans before moving forward. 🔴 @DDGeopolitics | Socials | Donate | Advertising

🇪🇺 The crisis in the petrochemical industry in Europe is escalating — companies are closing down, and investments are flowing to China. According to the European Chemical Industry Council (Cefic), the volume of chemical production that was planned to be shut down in Europe reached 17.2 million tons per year in 2025, which is more than twice the figure for the previous year and almost six times the level recorded in 2022. Overall, since 2022, the closure of production capacities amounting to 37 million tons has been announced, which is equivalent to approximately 9% of Europe’s production capacity in the chemical industry. This has affected about 20,000 jobs. Investments, by contrast, are being redirected. According to Cefic, confirmed investments in new European chemical production capacities decreased by more than 80% in 2025. This decline reflects high energy and carbon costs, weak demand, stringent regulations, and competition from new enterprises in China, the United States, and the Middle East. The problem is most acutely felt in relation to basic chemicals such as ethylene and propylene. These are key components for the production of plastics, pharmaceuticals, and industrial goods. Europe is increasingly relying on imports as its own production becomes less competitive. In July 2025, the European Commission attempted to respond by presenting an action plan for the chemical industry. It was proposed to create an “Alliance of Critical Chemical Substances,” strengthen trade protection measures, reduce energy costs, and provide additional government support to energy‑intensive industries. The Commission also stated that it would update state aid rules to cover additional sectors of the chemical industry. However, these measures failed to stop the outflow. The expansion of production in China exacerbated the problem. Large volumes of new capacity weakened global profitability in the industry, while the costs of European producers are rising significantly faster than those of their counterparts. @eurasianchoice

Russian🇷🇺 politician Vladimir Zhirinovsky predicted WW3 starting with a war against Iran before his death in 2022: ‘You are not taking into account the situation in the Middle East. Such events are taking place there that everyone will completely forget what Ukraine is. It’s about World War 3. Iran is not Vietnam, or North Korea, or Kosovo. The most terrible events will take place there.’

Col. Lawrence Wilkerson on Going Underground: ‘We’re already in WORLD WAR 3. Tack that on to what’s happening in the Arctic, what’s happening in the Balkans, or the Baltic Sea, what’s happening in Kaliningrad, perhaps what’s happening in Ukraine and around Ukraine, what’s happening in other places between Ukraine and the Caucasus. And below the Caucasus, you got the World War already going. You’ve got several theatres already going, and all it needs to do is merge, and it will eventually, and we’re going to have a damn fine war.’
